Somebody recommend me a good rimfire scope.

Like I said, recommend me a good rimfire scope. All I've ever used are cheap Tasco fixed 4 power. This is for on a Ruger 77/22 boat paddle that I've had since I was a teenager and I love by the way.

I have Leupold 2 - 7 Rimfire scopes on both my 10-22’s.

They’re bright, clear and do what I need for those rifles. They are immensely better than Tasco optically and aren’t very expensive.

The Leupold VX-freedom does look like the ticket. Thanks buddy guy!

What are you wanting to do with it?
What I'd recommend for schwacking squirrels is different than what I'd recommend for PRS Rimfire.

I know, you see these guys at the range with 5X25 scopes on their rimfire. I think I have a 3-9 on my Anschutz.

Vortex 2X7 Diamondback sits on my top shelf field rifle.

Yep good point.

I assumed Red squirrel dirt naps, which is the primary purpose of my 10-22’s.

Honestly the thing has always been a laser and Ive nailed squirrel well past 75 yards with it consistently with the cheap 4 power tasco. I was honestly thinking 3x9 power but I don't wanna over scope it either... IDK The leupold looks pretty good but is there any other options I should consider. Does Burris or vortex make rimfire scopes? I put a Burris XTR II mil dot on my Ruger .308 precision rifle a few year ago and I really like it, but I don't think they make anything rimfire specific. I wonder if they would change the parallax for a rimfire. Isn't that easy to do? Anyway I just don't wanna overlook anything before I jump...
